I have had four spinal operations over the last 12 years and my incontinence issues are well recorded. I have worn adult nappies to manage my incontinence for over 35 years and as a rule have always been able to change myself, sometimes with a bit of help. Just recently however I had a hip replacement and changing myself when wet was out of the question. I generally go through four nappies a day and I was so embarrassed at having to tell the nurses I was wet and asking them to change me. But they were amazing about it although some struggled a bit fixing the tapes in the best place! I was in hospital for four days and they never made me feel awkward even checking every once in a while if I needed changing.
